Comcast Fires TechTV Staff
Bocaj writes "Looks like it's curtains for TechTV staff. A Leo Laporte article says that Comcast has let the entire staff go. 'Per the WARN Act (governing plant closings) all the employees of TechTV have been given 60 days notice. The San Francisco operation will be shuttered by July. 100 of the existing jobs will be posted for those willing to relocate to LA.' No word on what will happen to all the shows or the channel."

Next season, IndianTechTV.
-- the only good thing the French ever did was two chicks at one time
You see, the Indians may be able to program and run call centres pretty well, but they can't colour in between the lines all that well.
If I point out that you are incorrect, making me a foe does not make you any more correct.
Are you gay?
I was wondering how you get mod points on Wikipedia and do they have problems with that goatse guy?
Anime owns what now? I'd say CG is the cream of the crop. But then Simpsons seems to be most successful animated series going, and its neither. I don't see a whole lot of Anime outside of eMule, and Cartoon Network.
Hell, if I were out of work and someone *wanted* to pay me to take some pics of me naked, I sure as hell would do it!!
Thank you for publicly proclaiming your moral illness. Unfortunately, you've left out your address, so I can't tell my kids who to stay the heck away from.
On a more pragmatic note, you might want to consider what this guy went through for showing off his bod, and he was wearing a body suit.
I got my Linux laptop at System76.
All I ever see on techtv is the screen savers show, which sucks. I mean this show REALLY sucks. I can't stand it. This isn't a loss. YAY for comcast.
It seems to me TechTV served a few very useful purposes, not the least of which was providing free, quality phone support to callers.
Do you really think those were "real" callers? Didn't you know everything on TV is scripted and made up? Why introduce unknown variables to your formula when you can script more interesting in concept and solution?

Sorry to hurt your feelins modder, but it's the truth. It's how the medium operates. It's the "magic" of TV. My comment was in no way intended to start a fight, but simply express the way things work. Oh well, it's Slashdot....

YO! This is not a troll. It's the fucking truth, you goddamn moronic mods. I mean, Sweet Jesus, have you ever watched TechTV. Watching TechTV ranks right above "poking my eyes out with a melon scooper" on the list of things I'd do if I had too much spare time on my hands.
yeah she is, i'd love to fucking cut off her tits and splooge all over the holes in her chest. then i'd take a shit on her face.
